    Lovely wings!!!

    I see you are a fan of blurs. Well, so am I.

    I would crop either the top or the bottom for a stronger composition.

    I agree with Fabs. Also, I'm not sure that the toning adjustments worked in this case--its a little too cold and steely for my taste. Be wary of the wings--there's a modest amount of flap in this image, but the wings are still close to the "flying pancake" position. Your photograph would have more impact if the wings were in the more dramatic "wings up" or "wings down" positions.

    Welcome to BPN!

    I like it as presented with just a bit of crop top and bottom to give it a sense of motion !!!! The toning is a mater of taste but I think it enhances the mood I like it !!!!

    I love blurs and I like this one. A pano crop would be more effective. And David is right about the cold look. Try desaturating the blues as that should clean up the whites.

    Later and love, artie

    ps; Please try to remember to use "created" and "image" rather than "shot." Thanks and <smile>
